Progress continues at Rouse Hill development

The Parkland Estate is located just 200m from the Cudgegong Rd train station

CONSTRUCTION has commenced on the second stage of the masterplanned Parkland Estate — one of the few developments set to be completed ahead of the much anticipated Sydney Metro North West.

The site at Rouse Hill, just 200m to the Cudgegong Rd Railway Station, is being completed over three stages.

The first, called the Savannah Terraces comprising of 64 townhouses has already sold out with the first residents expected to move in mid-year.

The Phoenix Luxury Apartments are set around a 5,000 sqm central parkland

The second stage called the Phoenix Luxury Apartments – a 134 unit complex offering a mix of one, two and three bedroom configurations – is scheduled to be finished prior to the opening of the railway in early 2019.

Project marketing Manager Nathan O’Brien, from the local Hills company Capital Residential Developments, said they have currently sold more than 75 per cent of apartments to a range of purchasers including investors and first home buyers.

The complex will be built around a 5,000sqm central park featuring a swimming pool, tennis courts, playground including a waterplay area, barbecue facilities and a community centre. This is also scheduled to be completed by early next year.

“We are not just creating apartments for apartments sake but we are focused on liveability and neighbourhood feel,’’ Mr O’Brien said.

“It is terrific product for investors and especially first time buyers trying to break into the market with it being brand new and a couple of metre away from a train station that hasn’t yet commenced operation.’’

Mr O’Brien believes `the penny hasn’t dropped’ for many Sydneysiders about the positive impact the train line will have on the growing northwest. The Cudgegong Rd Station is just a two-minute train journey to the Rouse Hill Town Centre, nine minutes to Norwest Business Park, 13 minutes to Castle Hill and 26 minutes to Macquarie University.

“It is no more sitting on the M2 with all the traffic, frustration and tolls for those who have to commute,’’ he said.

“It will be just turn up to the train station, no more timetable and be there in 26 minutes.

“It’s a whole lifestyle aspect that the Hills hasn’t been used to — whether you are working or studying you can come back here afterwards you can have a swim and green space around you.’’

Residents are set to move into the townhouse part of the site by mid-year

The apartments have been designed for families and are 15 to 25 per cent larger than other comparable developments.

The Phoenix Luxury Apartments, a U-shaped building of up to seven storeys, has been designed to maximise the number of north facing units as well as street and district views.

One bedroom units are priced $549,000; two bedroom units priced $680,000 and three bedroom apartments from $855,000. For a limited time, purchasers will receive a free upgrade to oak flooring and blinds package.

The third stage of development, called The Lotus, will be launched around September this year. It will comprise of 214 apartments set across two complexes.
